IMF Cautions on Tokenization Shifting Risk Toward Code and Platforms The International Monetary Fund warned that tokenization of financial assets may relocate systemic risk from traditional banks to smart contracts, shared ledgers, and technology platforms. Faster settlement and automation, while reducing certain frictions, could accelerate shock transmission and concentrate vulnerabilities in code governance and infrastructure providers. In its assessment, the IMF noted that tokenized markets enable near-instant trades, collateral management, and compliance but remove buffers that once slowed crisis propagation. Effective oversight would need to extend beyond institutions to the underlying programmable systems themselves. This perspective arrives as tokenized real-world assets gain traction across securities, funds, and other instruments. The trend underscores ongoing debates about balancing innovation with resilience in digital finance. Regulators and market participants are evaluating implications for stability, interoperability, and legal frameworks as adoption progresses. The IMF stressed the importance of policy adaptation to address these evolving risk profiles.#IMFWarnsTokenizationShiftsRiskToCode
